Ampere Magnus Grand Launched in India at ₹89,999: A Family-Friendly Electric Scooter with LFP Battery
Ampere, the electric two-wheeler brand under Greaves Electric Mobility, has launched its latest family-focused electric scooter, the Magnus Grand, priced at ₹89,999 (ex-showroom). Positioned above the Magnus Neo, this new model is designed to deliver a strong blend of reliability, comfort, safety, and modern design — catering especially to families and urban commuters.
A Step Up in Battery Technology
At the heart of the Ampere Magnus Grand is a Lithium Iron Phosphate (LFP) battery, widely recognized for its safety, durability, and performance consistency. Unlike conventional lithium-ion packs, LFP batteries are better equipped to handle India’s varied climate conditions, ensuring reliable performance across regions.
To boost buyer confidence, Ampere is offering an industry-leading 5-year/75,000 km warranty on the LFP battery. This long warranty ensures lower long-term ownership costs and greater peace of mind for buyers.
